Perfect Roasted Whole Turkey

This is the Best turkey EVER! I got this form a site 2 yrs ago and it is the juiciest yummy turkey! I now make it for the holidays, or well when Im craving it! I believe it was posted by a lady named kittenical

The total cooking time for this 18-pound stuffed bird should be about 4 hours.

Transfer the cooked turkey to a large serving platter, cover loosley with foil and let rest 30 minutes before carving (DO NOT slice the turkey before 30 minutes or all juices will flow out of the bird!).
